I really don't care if modifying a commit message would count as a new revision of the tree, all I care is that "bzr log" and friends show the modified commit message by default (if there would be a way to see the original one before the fix, that's okay too). > because the commit message > is considered part of the change, just like the diff. Tweak the commit > message and you've tweaked the change -- it's no longer the same change. There's no requirement to pretend the tree is the same after modifying the commit message. The requirement is that "bzr log" shows it with the commit, that's all.
